    Drawing teams now. Points will remain the same as in past years: 10 point bonus for winning a leg, everyone else decreases by 1 point. 11 teams, first leg winner gets 21 points, second place 10, etc.

    Will post teams in minutes.

    I dunno where you were looking for bios, IJAG, but CBS' website has had 'em posted for a while: http://www.cbs.com/shows/amazing_race/cast/

    Thanks. They might want to have those easily findable from the home page, the video page with the season preview, or the "photos" tab where I got those images from, though. I literally spent two hours over the past three days looking for those bios.

    Would you believe that of the Gary and Will team, the short one lives in my paper's coverage area?

    Seriously.

    I did a quick preview for today's paper; our lifestyles editor will be doing a story soon.

    Also, side note: I'm watching Once Upon a Time, then Dexter, then going to bed. The new job requires me to wake up at 5:45 a.m., so no late-night TAR tonight. I will watch and score tomorrow night.
